For the attention of Ocarina2:- from A J Bell-

"What is Bed & ISA?

Bed & ISA is a way of transferring assets held outside of an ISA into an ISA so that future investment growth is sheltered from tax. The investments are sold, cash is transferred into the ISA and the investments are repurchased.

‘Bed and ISA can be useful if you want to take advantage of your annual ISA allowance but don’t have cash available to invest and do have investments held outside your ISA that you want to keep,’ explains Charlie Musson, spokesperson for AJ Bell Youinvest. You don’t have to carry out the sale and repurchase yourself. You simply fill in a form with your investment platform and they’ll do it for you.

You can also do this for SIPPs (self-invested personal pensions), where the technique is called Bed & SIPP.

Hope it helps.

Today, we have NO planed entrants :-(

So, I put myself forward :-) ... you never know? ...

Since this was posted up I have been joined by:-
Tiddlor - for today!

and

Trift8082 - for today! .... .... getting very confused NOW, Trift has in the past explained she is, in fact, a 'woman' fair enough.
Today she signs off as Lionel, ...oo-er, are you doing a Tricky Dicky and using his wife's account?

Good luck.

Good luck everyone, large positions are now being taken...

Crabby08 you are already down, good luck

Ocarina2, if that latest post was aimed at me, in their eyes YOU are trying to get the funds OUT as that is the ONLY way YOU yourself can perform a BED & ISA.

Only cash can be moved between accounts and so the cash in your share dealing account has to 'clear' via the BACS system before YOU yourself can transfer it.

That is the ONLY reason that the share dealing companies specifically tell you not to try and perform a BED & ISA yourself, you will fall foul of Banking rules.

I hope that explains in full, all the best.

Tiddlor, added to today's game, good luck my friend.

Hi again Ocarina, I have found the definitive answer, share dealing companies chose to use the BACS system:-

"Because they are not part of the faster payments system. Share dealing funds are paid via BACS"

Ther you go, so if you sell you can reinvest straight away, if you wish to withdraw any cash it has to be done via BACS and hence the delay before it can be re-invested unless you let them perform the Bed & ISA outright.

Morning, Ocarina2,

I think you will find that is the normal time delay, if you have ever in the past sold stock from your share trading account you can invest again straight away, but if you ever wanted to withdraw that amount in 'cash' you had to wait for three days to pass, have a look in the T&C as they state the delay time, usual banking practice to wait for everything to be cleared cash-wise, of the skeptical would say a way to hold onto your money for longer.. :-) That is why they advise you specifically not to try and perform a 'Bed & ISA' yourself as you cannot do it as quickly as they can.

Look it up you will find the three-day rule applies I sure.
All the best.

I would just like to say what a great day today has been, lots of great posts and harmless banter by the good guys and unfortunately some less unsavory verbal from one of the past wingers who we bothered to try and appease when in his past apparent panic, there is no pleasing some people and I have remained silent whilst it continued tonight until now, you know who you are but you do seem to be beyond help, so no more, your time is up and as Tiddlor has said a green box it is for you as you spoil it for everyone else, you say we pick on you, well ask yourself WHY and you may realise the answer, you are not a nice and frendly stable poster, you change your tune depending on which way the wind blows one minute calling the BOD defamatory names the next praising them, you are unbalanced for some reason, so with respect please either knuckle down and behave or crawl back from whence you came, you will not be missed in the slightest, your choice....

Hi, Tony, that Philips TV was a very special set and with a unique aspect ratio very nice, Philips went through a rough patch and stopped making TVs selling the name, Philips-branded TVs will still be sold, but the sets will now be made under license by Funai Electric in North America, https://www.nytimes.com/2008/04/09/technology/09philips.html they were a great make and I have a 47" HD with Ambilight but upgraded to 4k, recently Philips have been uninspiring according to the press but seemed to have addressed the problems and are now back on track, good luck to you sir and with a great EUA payout to help.
All the best

Hi Pete, the larger size comes into its own for those widescreen films with the black bars that shrink the screen too much, it was the most I have ever spent on a TV and I just hope it lasts :-) even Becky has got used to the size now..

All the best

Thanks, Tiddlor, very kind of you, yes, but £77,000 for an extra 13" of diagonal viewing area does not sound like good value for money and a right p i s s t a k e ...and EUA has yet to come in for that much expenditure :-)
but I'm very pleased with the small version..

It was bad enough coughing up for the smaller one but got it cheaper than MRP so a bargain, and it has been great during this COVID lockdown..

All the best and here to tomorrow.

Tiddlor. Hi again,
here is the link to the new Sony TV I got back in April and if you go to the bottom and click on reviews of which there is one you may recognise the reviewer :-) this is the one with the tweeters...

I could only afford the small 85 inch one the 98 inch was out of my price bracket, cough, cough....

All the best mate.
Ian

Yes, Bob, you should be very pleased with today's news, a nice 88% rise in share price, and much more to come.

All the best to you.
Ian

Good evening my young friend Tiddlor, I have just caught up reading through about 800 odd posts since I left for the in-laws...
I have spent the last 3 days trying to help them fix this?
First, their built-in fridge freezer packs up, only seven years old along with the very posh 'Kube' fitted kitchen, well they call out the repairman who pushes in the back bulging panel and confirmes my guess that the unit has lost all its refrigerant gas,
signs an insurance form and says it is unrepairable,

So as the in-laws are sheltering I offer to extract the old built-in fridge/freezer and assist in finding a replacement on-line.
On getting the old one out and measuring it for the size I discover to my dismay why the old one died prematurely, it had been flogging its guts out for seven years with NO ventilation to get the heat away from the back, no top cupboard ventilation, NO plinth ventilation, no nothing, and when I measure the available cupboard space they had cut the back of the cupboard away to fit against the out of plum wall, so the 58cm deep cupboard was now only 55cm deep and they managed to squash in a 54.5cm unit leaving only a 5mm gap instead of the recommended 40-50mm.

I had to remedy this and the only way I could come up with was to fit a new 200sq cm plinth vent with a corresponding one in the cabinet top and then while standing in the cupboard chisel off all the plaster from the wall that backed the cupboard to give the required rear clearance, fit the new unit and attach the cabinet doors.

I can not believe the cowboy fitters than bodged the installation, nothing was as it should have been...just ripping off old people.

All now finished and they are so thankful they gave me a bottle of champers and I expect I will receive a nice Machine Mart voucher for Christmas.

A great day for Eurasia investors and great to hear you topped up, what does that bring your holding too now 310,000 ish?

Good luck my friend you deserve it, I'm off to have a shower and that cold beer in the fridge is calling me :-)

All the best young sir
Ian

Well said Gecko, we are just quietly awaiting our payday thanks to the company and it's very astute BOD.
A very respectable end of day stock price of 12.8p and up 77% on the day is a great level to move upwards from over the coming weeks.

All the best to you.
Ian

All the positive posters knew this would come good you only have to look at the BOD holdings to get a good idea, and that is only part of it...

The stock price is holding up very well and I expect to see it rise into the afternoon, the journey has recommenced at a higher stock price and long may it continue.

Enjoy the way today plays out and remove any stop losses as they only show your hand to the MM's if they require any more cheap stock to fulfill any big orders.

As much as I would love to watch today play out I have this errand to fit a replacement integral fridge freezer for the in-laws today, I will be back later.

Good luck everyone.

All the best
Ian

Good Morning Bigmj,

Nice to see you post on here, we were expecting to see your name come up as a large form 8.3 holder?

All the best to you
Ian
